I feel incredibly frustrated and crabby lately. I'm certain it's because I currently have no margin in my life, and when I do find an hour before bed free I end up watching an episode of 24 with Jeremy (as a date... for real).
Last night was at least fun - I invited another couple over for dinner. Having them over gave me the motivation to clean up the living room, kitchen and dining room, so I at least felt decent about some things before I fell asleep. They have a a little girl who is a little older than Peter, so the kids entertained themselves while we ate BLTs, brownies and ice cream. That also meant they were out the door around 8 PM to tuck her in to bed, so I got quality time with Stinky Pete, too.
Part of my crabbiness is stemming from work, because I've been given added responsibilites (that's what you get when you're a good employee, I guess) but that also means I've got more to do. And I don't really want more to do, because I want to be able to leave early on Fridays and not worry about finishing things so I don't have to do them on Monday.
Blargh.
